The only calorie and carb counting app for home cooking.
Cooking from scratch is much healthier and tastier than eating ready meals, processed foods and takeouts. But most people are not aware of how many calories are in what they eat. In the supermarket, if we want to see how many calories or carbs are in a particular food or meal, we look at the label on the packaging. But when we cook at home we donÔÇÖt get a label with the nutritional information on it for the whole dish. So how do we know whatÔÇÖs in there? Cook & Count calculates that nutri info for us, for any dish we want to prepare. And it gives us the amounts per serving too. None of that fiddly maths any more.
Cook & Count is a beautifully designed, fast to use app for creating and storing recipes in your own digital recipe book that can really help with calorie awareness.
Recommended by dietitians and nutritionists; and specialist diabetes dietitians, nurses and educators
